Legend, Prodigy, and Champion are a work of art and so engaging that I find myself wanting to reread them time and again. No other books have ever connected me so well to a fictional word and Day and June are probably the most dynamic, impactful, and memorable characters I have ever read. Needless to say, when I found out about Rebel, I wasted no time in preordering it. That being said……I find that an honest list of pros and cons is necessary for this addition purely because it is a little different than the first three books. **Spoilers Ahead** PROS: Writing – The author does an incredible job of delving into the hearts and minds of our protagonists. When I read her work, I can really feel and connect with what the characters are experiencing. Her descriptions are simple yet vivid and the dialogue is about as realistic as one can achieve on paper. Each character has their own voice and their own mindset and she shows this in the craft of her writing. Eden – I had expected that the usual dual-perspective would be told by Daniel and Eden instead of Daniel and June. I secretly hoped June would have told the other half, but I really enjoyed getting to know Eden better. This book is definitely Eden's story (which is why I say it's a little different than the original trilogy). He became a very relatable character and I understood his struggles. While nobody can replace June, Eden did a fine job of telling us his side of the story. Plus his fight at the end with Dominic Hann was just pure awesomeness. Daniel – while to me he will always be Day, I believe that Daniel Altan Wing is (and probably always will be) one of the most objectively relatable characters to ever exist within the pages of a novel. Everything that happens to him, everything he does……you just feel it. You understand what he’s going through. He is my favorite protagonist I have ever read. I love him. That being said......he's a little different in this book, overshadowed (in a small way) by his younger brother Eden. But still......he's Daniel Altan Wing. He's Day. June – I was so worried that June would only make a short cameo in this novel. Not so. She played a vital role in this story and am very pleased with her screen time. Drone Races – a fitting tribute to my beloved Skiz fights of Legend with an Antarctican twist. Very nice. The Ending - ……I have no words for this. Just read it. I don’t honestly think it could have been more perfect. CONS: Slow Start – admittedly, this novel started far slower than the other three. Obviously a certain degree of Antarctican world building had to take place, and we had to get brought up to speed on the new lives of Daniel and Eden but outside of the drone racing, not much happens in this book until you’re at the midway point. There is a sense of foreboding with Eden’s involvement in the Undercity and some tension with the rebuilding of the relationship between Daniel and June, but nothing that makes your stomach squirm in anticipation to find out more. Unfortunately, not quite the page turner that Legend was until much farther into the book (of course it picks up very nicely in the second half). The Level System – I’m with Daniel on this one: Antarctica’s Level system sucks. Not just for the citizens of the Undercity, but just how inconsistent it was throughout the novel. There are so many instances where I would expect points to be added or lowered in certain situations, but none of that happens. Daniel kissing June? That should be some points. Attending a special gala? Got to be something there. Maybe even something as simple as the heated arguments between Daniel and Eden. Shouldn’t they lose a couple? If watering a plant will give you +1, I have to believe that these few examples warrant something. Unless all this leveling up is implied? We’re never told and never find out. I also find it hard to believe that it is so difficult for people in the Undercity to raise their level. Simply doing beneficial things for yourself or others seems like a pretty straightforward road to the Sky Floors. This implies that all the people in the Undercity are criminals which simply isn’t true. The Level system sounds like a cool idea but in the writing, it becomes difficult to enforce on a page-by-page basis. Shallow Characters – ok……building a diverse cast of deep and meaningful characters can be a difficult feat when your story is in 1st person. Even with a dual perspective, this is not easily achieved (especially here within the span of only one book). However, this is exactly what happened in the first three books with Tess, Kaede, Thomas, Anden, Commander Jameson, and even Pascao. These characters were all developed from the perspectives of Day and June and each of them was unique and memorable in their own way. Not quite in Rebel. We get a few glimpses of Pressa and Dominic Hann and who they are, but that’s all it is: glimpses. Nobody else introduced really matters. Overall, this book was a superb sequel that wrapped up the questions about life after Legend and where the future sees our beloved characters. The ending was emotional, gripping, and I am so glad to have embarked on this journey from the very beginning when I first picked up Legend. Two big thumbs up. Review: A beautiful finale to a great series - In this surprise addition to the series, we join back up with Daniel as he is adjusting to his new life and job with AIS while taking care of his brother Eden. Eden is trying to live outside of Daniel's shadow, which of course gets him into trouble. Eden's character goes from being the 'little brother' complex to fulfilling the hero role quite nicely. He is not like Daniel in a lot of ways and that of course creates tension between him and Daniel. I liked how Lu was able to show the struggle that Eden has trying to make a name for himself and how hard it is to live in someone's shadow. By the end of the book, Eden grows up and shows not only himself but Daniel that he can take care of himself and that he needs to make his own decisions and mistakes. The first three books centered a lot on June and Daniel's relationship and while that is prominent in Daniel's half of the story, I would have liked to have seen more of what June's life was like after they separated. We have spent so much time and energy seeing how her and Daniel were able to change the world, but didn't get to see how it all effected her. I would have liked to have seen a little insight to that. The ending of course is perfect. We get that final bow to a great story and it's great to see the story get an ending that final feeling. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B07NCS3WS1 | | Accessibility | Learn more | | Best Sellers Rank | #57,793 in Kindle Store ( See Top 100 in Kindle Store ) #23 in Teen & Young Adult Siblings Fiction #26 in Teen & Young Adult Fiction about Siblings #75 in Teen & Young Adult Dystopian | | Book 4 of 4 | Legend | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars (3,745) | | Enhanced typesetting | Enabled | | File size | 6.2 MB | | Grade level | 7 - 12 | | ISBN-13 | 978-1250221711 | | Language | English | | Page Flip | Enabled | | Print length | 379 pages | | Publication date | October 1, 2019 | | Publisher | Roaring Brook Press | | Reading age | 12 - 17 years | | Screen Reader | Supported | | Word Wise | Not Enabled | | X-Ray | Enabled | ## Images ![Rebel: A Legend Novel - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/918n8-f9SnL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Superb Sequel and Great Wrap-up *by S***T on October 11, 2019* I want to preface this review by saying that this is my all-time favorite YA series and one of my favorite series overall.

A fair bit of romance and discussion of possible future alternative politics and how it could all go just as wrong as the current politics. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hk/products/132151181-rebel-a-legend-novel](https://www.desertcart.hk/products/132151181-rebel-a-legend-novel) --- *Product available on Desertcart Hong Kong* *Store origin: HK* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
